Closing announcement - Center for Western Studies (SD)



I am posting this announcement for a colleague.  If you have any questions,
CWS contact information is listed in the announcement.

**Please excuse any cross-listings.**


The Center for Western Studies of Augustana College will be moving into its
new $3.3 million dollar, 22,000 square foot archives, library, and gallary
in the next few weeks.

Located on the college campus in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the Center for
Western Studies' archives and manuscript collections comprise nearly 4,000
linear feet of institutional records and personal papers.  These
collections include the John R. Milton, the Riggs Family, and the Reuben
Goertz Germans-from-Russia collections; the records of the American Indian
Culture Research Center, the South Dakota Episcopal Church, the United
Church of Christ, and Augustana College; and numerous other collections.

The Center's research library holds over 35,000 books and bound
periodicals.  This collection focuses on the American West, northern Great
Plains, and American Indian ethnology.
